    Are they legit charging money for the tech demo game?

    Also did they mention how much the "upgrades" will be?

    Seems like I'm staying on Steam Deck until that thing wears down into a pile of dust huh.

    My understanding is it's $10 for upgrades that just run better with no new content, and $20 for ones that also have new content of come sort.

      I wanna see what the price is and what reviewers think of the screen and I might get one and sell my Switch OLED.

      However, with these game prices I sure as hell am not getting any games, I‘ll play through my backlog games which I‘ll also check whether and which will get updates. It‘d be really nice if the games I have that play at 30 fps would play at 60 and at 1080p native. Maybe I’ll get physical copies of Switch 2 games heavily discounted later on.

      At $80-$90 for physical editions, I wouldn't count on the used market helping that much.

        That asshole company everyone* cares about. My hatred of Nintendo runs deep. But I still watched the direct. I'm so excited for the innovative new features, and the new Mario Kart looks sick. I am disgusted that they will use the money to go after fans. I need help

            Same reason the ps3 fumbled the announcement and failed at launch. They got too greedy

              That pricing is really putting Nintendo out of its core market. The reason the Switch was an absolute smash is because it was and remained accessibly priced. The fact they’re charging $450 is really putting them out of the “hey that’s not too bad” audience. This is a wildly bad move on their part.

              The nickel and diming about every single thing they mentioned makes Sony and Microsoft seem generous by comparison.

                I was waiting for confirmation of the price to get a Steam Deck as well. Nintendo was fine as a cheaper side console, but I don't need 2 $500-ish walled garden consoles.

                  I don't! The other walled garden I'm referring to is a PS5.

                    From what i am reading only mario party jamboree and kirby upgrades will cost money, the zelda ones are free if you pay for switch online and metroid and pokemon dont appear to have any proce attached to their upgrades.

                    The running theory is thst most games wont cost to upgrade unless they offer expanded content. But expansions costing money is nothing new.

                      For $50 less, you get a similarly capable machine in terms of specs but more comfortable to hold, with an immensely larger library, and an operating system far more respectful of your authority to do what you want with the machine you bought.

                          The more expensive Switch Online Expansion Pass, specifically. That's a big if.

                                It's 70 and 80 tho?

                                And as an old, even with this price increase games are cheap, especially with how much time you get out of them.

                                I remember when Mario 3 was 50$ in 1990.

                                That's a 120$ today I think.

                                Mario 3 was way easier to make.

                                What a shit excuse of an argument.

                                Nintendo has BILLIONS all these corpos have billions they can keep the $60 price tag.

                                But they don't cause they want MORE while still paying workers shit.

                                Maybe YOUR paycheck has keep up with inflation but mine and millions of others sure as fuck hasn't.

                                Either way shits getting modded so I'll play for free. The switch 1 is the final console for me.

                                  Yup, new lawsuits, good hackers in jail just for helping retards like me to play a game when we feel like it...me, once a year maybe? Why would I buy a console if I only play once a year?

                                    At least this game may be worth it if it's $/h.
                                    Nintendos game might be <40hours long of pure campaign (excluding open world games like pokemon)

                                    That's encouraging prices to sky rocket.

                                    Holy shit yall truly boot lick so hard.

                                    10000% GTA6 will be $100 if Rockstar reads any of these posts.

                                    Setting a bad precedent.

                                          Really confused by this. I said Nintendo can fuck off.
